AN ORDINANCE ANNEXING TO THE TOWN CF VAIL CERTAIN TERRITORY SITUATED IN THE NORTH HALF OF SECTION EIGHT (8) , TOWNSHIP FIVE (5) , SOUTH, RANGE EIGHTY (80) WEST OF THE SIXTH PRIN- CIPAL MERIDIAN, COUNTY OF EAGLE; AND SETTING FORTH DETAILS IN RELATION THERETO. was introduced by Larry Robinson, Town Attorney, and read by the Trustees. Mayor Dobson polled the Trustees as to whether they had read and understood this ordinance, and each one replied that they did. Trustee Bailey moved that Ordinance No. 11, Series of 1971, be adopted, Trustee Donovan seconded, and those trustees voting in favor were as follows: Trustee Donovan, Trustee Freeman, Trustee Steinberg, Trustee Bailev. and Trustee Anderson. Trustee White was not yet in attendance. Hans Weibel and Mery Lapin explained their trash removal service to the Town Trustees. They have purchased two new trucks and have an investment of approximately $90,000. Weibel said that some of the customers had complained about the costs and he was going to try to have curb service to lower costs. Mayor Dobson and the Trustees felt that leaving trash out on the curb was probably in violation of one of our ordinances, but even if it weren't, they felt it was unsightly. A deci- sion as to what type of garbage containers w i 11 be used was also put before the Board along with some other problems, and Mayor Dobson named a committee of Trustees Donovan, Anderson, and Steinberg to meet with Hans Weibel and Mery Lapin to discuss these various problems. Terry Minger was requested to set up a meeting within the next two days. The Board then discussed an Agreement relating to deposits of various forms with the Bank of Vail. The Agreement provides that the Bank of Vail w i 1 1 deposit with the Central Bank and Trust Company of Denver securities in an amount equivalent to deposits made by the Town of Vail with the Bank of Vail, so that in the event there should be any default on the part of the Bank of Vail, the Town w i 11 be entitled to look to the securities held by the depository bank. After a discussion of the terms of the Agreement, a motion was made to approve same by Trustee Donovan, which was duly seconded by Trustee White. Upon a vote of the Trustees, the Agreement was unanimously ap- proved, and the Town Treasurer was authorized to execute same. Terry Minger, Town Manager, reported on the following: Everyone seems to agree that the First Vail Symposium was an enormous success, but Terry Minger wondered why there weren't more local representation. A meeting w i 11 be held in the near future to discuss the Symposium. Mayor Dobson and Terry Minger toured the new municipal complex and reported that we should be able to move into it by the end of October. The paving projects are ahead of schedule, and the money seems to be going further than expected. The Town streets w i 1 1 be finished in about two weeks. Minger then told the Trustees about a Home Rule Workshop being held in Vail at the Mountain Haus August 26 and 27, sponsored • by the Colorado Municipal League. Since Vail will be going Home Rule in January of 1972, it was felt that the Trustees should be interested in attending this conference. The Denver water diversion project was again brought up and Minger showed the Trustees an article showing how Denver planned to supply Broomfield with water. The VRA is drawing up a resolu- tion, and it was decided that the Town of Vail should do one also. It was also felt that we should have a meeting with William Lucas, Regional Forester, to have him explain his posi- tion to us. Charley Gersbach from the VRA asked if one member of the Board of Trustees could represent the Board and attend the meetings of the VRA. Gerry White was chosen to represent the Board of Trustees. It was decided to change the nights of the Town meetings from Monday to Tuesday. After a motion by Trustee Donovan and a second by Trustee White and unanimous vote, it was decided that an ordinance would be drawn up by the next meeting. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES CONVENED AS THE LOCAL LIQUOR LICENSING AUTHORITY. The Board convened as the Local Liquor Licensing Authority to consider expansion of liquor license at the Lord Gore Restaurant to include their convention room. Trustee White motioned for approval, Trustee Anderson seconded, and the vote was unanimous for approval. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 9:50 P.M. wow%:�%�Mwdvimol 0
